6/24/2011 - v1.20 - Finally, another update! Sorry, we've been working hard on the iPhone version, which is almost ready for release! We've added 5-star ratings, a 1-100 Beer Style rating, some interface improvements, and an experimental Twitter share function! Enjoy!

Is the beer lover in your life tired of swimming through a sea of beer apps, just to get the results he or she needs, on the spot? Well, they can stop drowning in their vat of beer apps, The Beer Expert App is now available.

Unlike any other beer-information app on the market, The Beer Expert draws from a database of hundreds of thousands of beers – almost every beer on the planet.

For either regular beer lovers, or true beer aficionados, the inability to recognize the beer that’s in front of you, now, is extremely frustrating. But imagine being able to walk into any package store, grocery, brewpub, or bar, having a look at the beer selection before you and immediately having access to every beer’s vital information.

this app provides that exact information and more. With a burgeoning and ever-growing beer market, and other folks producing beer apps, we had to create ours to be bigger, better, more robust and simply more useful than any other available. And this app will be attractive to anyone who enjoys beer, not only the "beer geeks".

By either taking a picture of the beer’s upc code, typing in its name, or speaking it into your phone, The Beer Expert will immediately provide the user with the beer’s commercial description, a.b.v., style and several user reviews, along with a picture.

And once the user has sampled the beer, if they disagree with one of the provided reviews, they can give it a “thumbs down". Likewise, they can give great reviews a “thumbs up.”

The secret to The Beer Expert’s comprehensiveness is it bringing together two of the beer world’s greatest forces;The Beer Sommelier® and RateBeer.com, which is arguably the largest beer database in the world. This combination allows for simply the most comprehensive, accurate and complete listing of beers available in the world…over 300,000 beers at the app’s disposal.

** Please keep in mind that this app is meant for educational/informational purposes ONLY. It's meant to tell you about the beer in front of you now, that you may purchase, but know nothing about. It does NOT have the functionality for note taking...this is NOT a beer rating app.**

Meh Scan feature is cool. Bottom line though, is this app wasn't easy enough to use and even after purchasing it, I just didn't use it. Nowadays there is a better beer app for free. None are spectacular. Whoever can integrate BeerAdvocate into an easy to use and well designed app will win.

Used to work good Sure wish the developer would respond to our requests. They won't respond to my email so I really doubt they care about this app enough to make changes. Would be perfect if we had the ability to backup our data.

Still Loses connection After nearly installing on a galaxy nexus I'm still getting the stupid lost connection error, usually starting with second search. . You guys gonna refund my money or something, cuz the app's not very useful right now.

Don't waste your money. I purchased this app 2 years ago on my old phone. There is no way to transfer your rated beers to a new device. You can't enter any comments on the beers. Many times descriptions will not load and tell me I don't have an internet connection. There is no Android share feature in this program either. Wish I can get a refund for this app as it clearly looks abandoned by the developers. Get the free Rate Beer app and make an account, save some money and be able to do everything this app cannot.
